CONCORD, Mass. — (BUSINESS WIRE) — August 9, 2010 —
What do the majority of the world’s most innovative companies have in
common?

They use SolidWorks® software to transform ideas into
products that change the way we live. Thirty-five of the 50 Most
Innovative Companies in 2010 featured by Bloomberg BusinessWeek (
http://fwd4.me/Olp)
own SolidWorks software – nearly 1,000 licenses in all.

Bloomberg BusinessWeek's Most Innovative Companies
special
report is based on data from longtime partner Boston Consulting
Group (BCG). Last December, the consultancy e-mailed a 21-question poll
to senior executives around the globe. The 1,590 respondents, who
answered anonymously, were asked to name the most innovative companies
outside their own industry in 2009.

“We’re a good match for these companies,” said Christine Washburn, vice
president of marketing at Dassault Systèmes SolidWorks Corp. “We’re
constantly innovating to help our customers achieve their most important
goals. An example is our new
Sustainability
software, which helps design teams develop products that have a lighter
impact on the environment, and quantify that impact so their customers
can make an informed decision.”

SolidWorks software is also uniquely integrated with the company’s
products for simulation, publishing, and data management. And it has one
of the largest and most dynamic user communities in 3D CAD.
